Comments from community Drug Drop-Off Day scheduled for Saturday

meeting regarding Black Hawk
Bridge recently shared with Iowa
Department of Transportation
by Susan Cantine-Maxson
Sentiments ran high at the
September 12 community
meeting regarding the Black
Hawk Bridge in Lansing. The
meeting, sponsored by Main
Street Lansing and moderated
by Upper Explorerland Re-
gional Planning Commission
(UERPC), offered local resi-
dents an opportunity to voice
their opinions in a small
group format on the future of
the Black Hawk Bridge.
The Iowa Department of
Transformation (DOT) had
presented information about
a variety of options to replace
the bridge in a public meet-
ing on August 8 and asked
for public input. The purpose
of the September 12 meeting
was to give citizens an oppor-
tunity to discuss the future of
the bridge with their neigh-
bors.
Approximately 70 people
were in attendance at T.J.
Hunters Banquet Hall to
offer their thoughts on the
future of the Black Hawk
Bridge. UERPC represen-
tatives collated all the notes
from the various table discus-
sions and presented the fol-
lowing summaries from the
discussion, which have since
been submitted to the Iowa
DOT:
General feeling that the
bridge does not need to be
replaced, or should not be re-
placed.
Trafc/logistical prob-
lems with the existing bridge
may be dealt with outside of
replacing the bridge entirely
or building it in a new loca-
tion.
A request that one of the
DOT bridge alternatives in-
volve keeping and maintain-
ing the existing bridge.
There are precedents,
such as La Crosse, WI and
Winona, MN, for keeping and
at Waukon, Lansing and Postville locations
The Northeast Iowa Drug Task
Force, in cooperation with Helping
Services of Northeast Iowa, is partic-
ipating in a free Drug Drop-Off event
this Saturday, October 28 from 10 a.m.
to 2 p.m. The purpose of the event is
to protect family, community and the
environment by properly disposing of
medications in a condential manner.
Three communities in Allamakee
County will be hosting drop-off loca-
tions for local residents to dispose of
prescription drugs during that event
timeframe. The Waukon Police De-
partment will host a drop-off location
at the Waukon Police Station located at
104 First Street NW. Both the re sta-
tion at 51 North Front Street and City
Hall at 201 John Street in Lansing will
be host sites. The Postville Police De-
partment will also host a drop-off site
at its City Hall location at 147 North
Lawler Street.

maintaining existing bridges.
The bridge is an his-
torical icon for the Lansing
community which residents
take pride in. It is a symbol
of identity for the town and
the historic bridge may con-
tribute towards attracting vis-
itors/tourists to the communi-
ty, which is benecial.
Whatever occurs with
the bridge, it is important that
the small town culture and
unique character of the Lan-
sing community be protected.
If a new bridge is built,
can the existing bridge be
kept in some form, as a one-
way bridge next to a new one-

Area residents provide input on Black Hawk Bridge ...
More than 70 people attended the September 12 community meeting hosted by Main
Street Lansing at T.J. Hunters Banquet Hall in Lansing to discuss and provide their thoughts
on the future of the Black Hawk Bridge in Lansing. The meeting was spurred by an initial
meeting in August where the Iowa Department of Transportation presented proposed plans
for future replacement options for the Black Hawk Bridge. Comments from the September
12 meeting were gathered and collated by the Upper Explorerland Regional Commission
and then recently made public and shared with the Iowa Department of Transportation and

trian route, etc.?
Improvements to the
existing bridge and bridge
approach can be made to in-
crease its functionality. Ex-
amples include making a one-
way bridge and taking turns
crossing, incorporating trafc
lights, further limiting the
weight/size of trucks passing
over the bridge, widening the
approach, etc.
A feeling that truck trafc
is difcult to accommodate
with a bridge near Lansing,
given constraints of the sur-
rounding community, hills,
turning parameters, etc.
Regular vehicular trafc
associated with the bridge is a
positive thing for downtown
Lansing/Lansing businesses.
Many expressed concern re-
garding loss of trafc direct-
ed onto Main Street (though
some expressed an interest
in moving trafc away from
Main Street as well).
Pedestrian and bicycle
routes should be incorporat-
ed somehow in the future,
whether as an add-on to the
existing bridge structure, as
a re-use of the old bridge if
a new is built, or included in
the design of a new bridge.
There may be solutions

Existing and recent additional funding spur
capital campaign for new tennis courts
by Lissa Blake
Although signicant fund-
ing has fallen into place to
build two new tennis courts,
community support will de-
termine the scope of the proj-
ect.
Earlier this fall, Waukon
Park and Recreation Wellness
Department Director Jere-
my Strub received notice the
community had received al-
most $13,000 in funding from
Wellmarks 3-Point-Play
program, thanks to citizen
nominations from University
of Iowa fans. To help deter-
mine the recipient of these
funds, Iowa Hawkeye fans
were encouraged to nominate
their hometowns by texting in
votes at Iowa sporting events
Candidate forum
planned prior to
or submitting nominations
online at Wellmark3Point-
Play.com.
Every time a University of
Iowa basketball player hit a
three-point shot or a Hawk-
eye kicker booted a eld goal
during the 2016-2017 aca-
demic year, Wellmark issued
a charitable contribution to
support an unfunded or un-
derfunded health project in
Iowa. After compiling a sea-
sons worth of nominations
and scoring the number of
votes for a given community
against its total population,
Waukon was ultimately se-
lected to receive the health
project award.
OTHER FUNDING
Strub explained the com-
munity still has money which
was set aside when it lost
its tennis courts when Wau-
kon High School was reno-
vated and expanded around
10 years ago. We had two
tennis courts where the high
school gym sits right now,
said Strub. At the time,
$21,000 was set aside to build
new courts and that has never
been done.
Strub said another $10,000
in RAGBRAI proceeds
has been earmarked for the
project and Waukon should
be able to receive another
$20,000 in funding through
the United States Tennis As-
sociation (USTA) and an
additional $20,000 from the
USTAs Midwest Section.
If we include funds set
aside and all the grants, were
at about $85,000, said Strub.
THE COST
Strub said in getting quotes
for the new courts, which will
be located to the west of the
Waukon High School park-
SPECS TO CONSIDER
With regard to the appear-
ance of the nished courts,
Strub said much of that will
be dictated by USTA guide-
lines.
In order to receive their
grant funding, we have to
follow their specications.
There will be different col-
or-coded boundary lines for
different age brackets. Youth
ages 10 and under will have
a 36-foot court marked out,
ages 10-15 will have a 60-foot
court and adults will have a
76-foot regulation court, he
said. We also have to have
ample parking and accessible
bathrooms (which must com-
ply with the Americans with
Disabilities Act), all of which
is already there at that loca-
tion, he said.
COMMUNITY ACCESS
Strub said although the
Wellness Center is techni-
cally large enough to be set
up for tennis, other activities
such as basketball would

FARM TO SCHOOL
MONTH SPECIAL
GUEST: KOHLRABI
by Liz Happ, AmeriCorps
service member at
Allamakee Schools
October is an exciting
month in northeast Iowa! The
leaves are changing color,
the air is becoming crisp and
harvest season is winding
down for most farmers. As
we enter autumn, we honor
the summer of hard work by
harvesting and sharing garden
bounties with friends and
family. Schools across the
county have joined together
to celebrate this time of plenty
through Farm to School
Month, a month dedicated to
developing and applauding
strong connections between
schools and local foods.
Here at Allamakee
Community School District,
we are working to make this
a month full of fresh food,
fresh ideas and fresh faces.
Our foodservice director
has been working tirelessly
to feature local food on the
lunch menu almost every
day throughout the month
of October. I am hosting
weekly cafeteria taste tests
promoting vegetables from
the Iowa Food Hub. Most
importantly, we are working
as a community to teach
youth about the importance
of local food inside and
outside of the classroom.
Recently, the Waukon
Middle School had a very
special guest in the lunchroom
- fresh kohlrabi sticks!
Students overwhelmingly
agreed that kohlrabi is
delicious, with many coming
back for seconds and thirds!
They loved the alien-looking
vegetable that was as big as
their heads, and many said
they grow it in their gardens
at home.
As I was setting up for
the taste test, I had a student
stop in her tracks when she
saw me. Do we get to try
that?! she bellowed across
the cafeteria. I beamed.
Good things are happening in
Allamakee County!
to host "Your Money, Your
Future" class in November
Life is not about money -
but how people manage their
money impacts their quality
of life, their familys life, and
the life of their community. A
new course from Iowa State
University Extension and
Outreach provides the tools
Iowans need to work toward
nancial goals.
Your Money, Your Future
begins in three communities
this November, said Jean-
nette Mukayisire, Human

Specialist. In this two-part
course youll learn how to
make your money work for
you.
The course covers how
to understand spending, use
nancial management re-
sources, and build personal
nancial management skills.
It is sponsored by Iowa State
University Extension and
Outreach and Northeast Iowa

tion.
The class will meet at the

you can be more nancially
secure.

Allamakee County Republicans hold Fall Fundraiser ...
The Allamakee County Republican Fall Fundraiser was held Sunday, October 1
at the Old Rossville Store. It was a well-attended event with many area Republican
elected officials present. A representative from Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds' office
spoke on her behalf. Allamakee County elected officials including Supervisor Larry
Schellhammer (far left in above photo), Attorney Jill Kistler, Recorder Deb Winke,
Auditor Denise Beyer (left to right at far right in above photo) and Treasurer Lori
Hesse (not pictured) shared department updates. Also speaking were State Senator
Mike Breitbach and State Representative Kristi Hager (second and fourth from left in
above photo). Keynote speaker for the event was Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate
(third from left in above photo), who updated the crowd on the recently passed Voter
I.D. Reform brought forward through the recommendations of his department. He also
spoke on the computer safeguards in place to protect against the numerous attempted
hackers and scammers. The evening wrapped up with raffle winners and the auction
with Auctioneer Mike Monroe. Submitted photo.
National Weather Service seeking
volunteers to resume historical
trend as local weather observers
It was a fairly typical fall
morning in northeast Iowa
with clear skies at sunrise,
a temperature of 31 degrees
and a chilly wind from the
northwest. The date was near-
ly 160 years ago November
1, 1857. The location was
Rossville and the weather
observer was Mr. Carlisle D.
Beeman, a volunteer for the
Smithsonian Institution.
This is the oldest surviv-
ing weather report from Al-
lamakee County. The month
went on to be an unusually
cold one with temperatures
falling below zero three times
including a minus nine de-
gree reading on the Novem-
ber 23. It was also one of the
wettest Novembers known in
Allamakee County with 5.60
inches of precipitation fall-
ing.
Back then, Dubuque was
Iowas largest city and the
frontier town of Iowa City
was the state capital. Iowa
had been a state for ten years
while a few miles to the north
Minnesota remained six
months away from becoming
the nations 32nd state.
Weather has always been
on the forefront on Iowans
minds and recording weather
information has been prac-
ticed for a very long time
in the state. The Rossville
weather records continued for
about two and one-half years
with three times per day ob-
servations made of tempera-
ture, wind, cloud cover and
precipitation.
October 1, 1875, druggist
F. H. Robbins of Waukon be-
came one of the 60 original
observers of the brand new
Iowa Weather Service (prede-
cessor of todays State Clima-
tologist Ofce).
In 1890 the Iowa Weather
Service observation network
became part of the volunteer
cooperative weather ob-
servation network of the new
civilian U.S. Weather Bureau
(todays National Weather
Service). The Waukon weath-
er station ceased operation
and a new one began on the
Clayton County side of Post-
ville April 5, 1891.
Eventually, the Weather
Bureau network expand-
ed to include an observer in
Lansing June 10, 1896. A
Waukon weather station was
re-established October 1,
1934 and another station was
established at Dorchester Oc-
tober 1, 1946.
As expected in Iowa, a
wide variety of weather was
recorded over the years. The
temperature soared to 108
degrees at Postville July 21,
1901 and to 106 at Waukon
July 14, 1936. Meanwhile,
temperatures fell to -35 at
Postville January 12, 1912
and to -34 at Waukon Febru-
ary 3, 1996 following a "day-
time high" temperature of
-16 the previous afternoon.
Annual rainfall varied from
a whopping 55.56 inches at
Waukon in 2007 to a paltry
yearly total of 19.24 inches
at Dorchester in 1963 (a to-
tal nearly matched in just one
month at Waukon in August
2007 when 19.11 inches fell).
Numerous locations across
north central and northeast
Iowa recorded their wettest
year ever in 2016. However,
it is not known if a record was
set in Dorchester, Lansing or
Waukon that year. In an odd
twist of fate, all three of the
weather observers at the three
long-term Allamakee County
weather stations discontinued
observations in 2013 and no
weather observations have
been recorded since.
The National Weather
Service (NWS) ofce in La
Crosse, WI is looking for
volunteer weather observ-
ers in, or within ve miles
of, Dorchester, Lansing and
Waukon. The NWS will pro-
vide and install a rain gage
and in the case of Waukon
also an electronic tempera-
ture system. All that is re-

Bridge ...
Continued from Page 1A
to deal with the issues barges
are encountering in the vicin-
ity of the Lansing bridge out-
side of building a new bridge
or changing the location of
the bridge.
A concern that increased
trafc, and potentially more
trucks, associated with a new
bridge could take a toll on
nearby roads (e.g. Hwy. 9).
Concern regarding the
need to upsize roads/inter-
sections connecting to a new
bridge and the impact that
could have on the communi-
ty.
If the bridge is re-built,
how will the community
be protected in the interim?
Even temporary loss of traf-
c across the bridge could
have negative impact on local
business, in addition to con-
cerns with noise and disrup-
tion of construction, etc.
Residents need to see
how the approaches will be
dealt with to the existing
bridge or a new bridge, to
understand potential impacts
to roads and structures. This
is an important element to the
community weighing in on
what will work for Lansing.
Historic buildings/sites
near the river need to be pro-
tected in the event of a bridge
project.
If the bridge has to be re-
built, a majority of meeting
attendees would like to see it
rebuilt to look like the exist-
ing Lansing bridge.
Though many agreed that
the existing bridge should be
maintained if at all possible,
comments regarding differ-
ent DOT bridge alternatives
were provided, and touched
on things such as potential
impacts to Main Street, the
school, natural areas/the
bluff, historic structures, etc.

loss of homes or businesses
should a bridge project re-
quire their removal, and the
loss of tax base as a result.
In general, most people
in attendance favored keep-
ing the Black Hawk Bridge
and maintaining it. Everyone
agreed that it was difcult to
express a preference for the
placement of a new bridge
without knowing the ap-
proaches that would be used
and how those approaches
would encroach upon resi-
dential districts, historical
buildings and ecologically
important areas of the river.
Several felt that the bridge is
such an iconic structure asso-
ciated with the area that ev-
ery effort should be made to
keep it. Several people also
stated that they would like
to meet with a panel of Iowa
DOT people and an engineer
to answer questions about the
structural integrity of the cur-
rent bridge.
NO IMMEDIATE PLANS
FOR THE BRIDGE
After the meeting, one
local resident contacted the
DOT with questions about
the long range plans for the
bridge. The DOT's represen-
tative for transportation in
this area, Krista Rostad, re-
plied with, "This bridge study
and planning process will be
ongoing for a couple of years
before we develop a preferred
alternative. We do not have
ideas or even road designs
beyond the 2004 feasibility
study, which is all conceptual,
except that we added a new
alternative for consideration.

A recent survey by the Royal Society for Public Health suggests that social media can be bad for our mental health. Anyone who has ever spent time on Facebook or Instagram probably knows
that the images and messages there can make you feel insecure, envious and inferior. Cases of cyber-bullying and other forms of online shaming or intimidation are too well-known for anyone
to doubt this possible hazard. The survey of approximately 1500 people aged 14-24 found that social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram increased feelings of anxiety in over half of the
respondents. Seven out of ten of the respondents said that Instagram made them feel worse about their body image and 2/3 of them said that Facebook made cyber-bullying worse. Those who
spent more than two hours per day using social media were most at risk, and the researchers are calling for measures aimed at educating users on how to use social media in a positive way. We all
desire to connect with others in a positive way, and while social media can facilitate this, it can also make it very easy to harm others. So use social media, but use it wisely, and always only for
good. Christopher Simon Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. Dont have anything to do

(MS) - Routine vehicle
maintenance protects driv-
ers on the road while also
protecting the often consid-
erable nancial investment
they make in their cars
and trucks. Maintenance
guidelines have changed
thanks to technology, but
drivers must continue to
care for their vehicles to
ensure the safety of them-
selves, their passengers
and fellow motorists.
From the time they rst
get behind the wheel,
many drivers recognize
the need to periodically
change their oil and have
their tires rotated. But
few drivers may under-
stand the importance of
maintaining their vehicles
headlights, and just how
compromised they and
their passengers might be
when driving with old, dim-
ming or foggy headlamps.
Burned out lights great-
ly diminish driver visibility
and may even draw the at-
tention of law enforcement.
But headlight bulbs dont
just burn out overnight. As
bulbs age, their light out-
put gradually reduces due
to use and factors such as
humidity, electrical resis-
tance and lament fatigue.
Drivers concerned about
the efcacy of their head-
light bulbs can take steps
to improve their visibility
when driving at night.
Accept your own vul-
nerability. The human eye
is not adapted for noc-
turnal vision. As a result,
drivers visual acuity may
be reduced by as much
as 70 percent when driv-
ETHANOL-FREE ing at night. Cloudy, dim
headlights only exacerbate
that problem, further com-
Great for chainsaws,
promising the safety of ev-
eryone on the road. Avoid
aggressive driving and al-
ways obey the speed lim-
its, even when its late at
night and roads are empty.
Learn to recognize
headlamp clouding. Ac-
cording to the automo-
tive lighting innovator Lu-
mileds, sunlight, ozone,
road pollution, and even
chemicals used in car
washes can contribute
to headlamp clouding.
Clouded headlamps often
appear hazed and yel-
low and reduce headlight
output considerably. Rou-
tine headlamp inspection
can help drivers discover
clouded lamps that can
greatly compromise night-
time visibility.
Restore clouded head-
lamps. Clouded head-
lamps do not necessarily
need to be replaced. The
Philips Headlight Resto-
ration Kit can help drivers
restore their clouded head-
lamp lenses. The kit em-
ploys a protective UV coat-
ing that effectively restores
yellow, hazy lenses that
have been compromised
by years of exposure to the
elements.
Replace headlamps
that are past their prime.
While not all clouded
headlamps need to be
replaced, some aging or
outdated bulbs are best
replaced with new models
designed to produce sub-
stantially more light output.
Drivers whose vehicles are
equipped with standard
halogen headlights may
be surprised to learn that
such lights typically begin
to break down within two to
three years of installation,
during which time light out-
put might be reduced by as
much as 30 percent. Com-
pared to standard halogen
bulbs, Philips X-tremeVi-

The braking system of
most vehicles consists
of brake pads, calipers
and metal discs called
rotors that work to slow
down a vehicle. When
the vehicle needs to stop,
the calipers squeeze the
brake pads against the
spinning rotors. Because a
lot of friction is generated,
rotors, like brake pads,
need to be replaced
periodically. However,
drivers may not know
when these components
need to be changed or if
other services can be done
to prolong the life of the
rotors a little longer.
The rst step is to
inspect the braking system.
A healthy brake rotor will
be smooth and have an
uninterrupted surface that
is free of dust, grooves and
grit, advises automotive
retailer CarsDirect. If brake
pads have caused grooves
to form, the pads or the

Area entities publish first-ever
study of six-year obesity trends
A Luther College collab-
oration on childhood obesity
research shows that commu-
nity- and school-based inter-
ventions are effective in re-
ducing the rise of childhood
obesity.
Partners in the research in-
clude Loren Toussaint, Luther
College professor of psychol-
ogy, along with recent Luther
graduates Kristin Houshold-
er and Katelyn Janssen; Ann
Manseld, Luther College
Class of 1979 and Luther's
project coordinator for North-
east Iowa Food and Fitness
Initiative; and Brian Lynch,
Luther Class of 1996 and
Mayo Clinic Pediatrician.
The group extended ex-
isting research on childhood
obesity by examining the
impact of the Northeast Iowa
Food and Fitness Initiative
(NEIFFI) on rates of increase
in Body Mass Index in ele-
mentary school children over
the course of six years.
"This is a unique opportu-
nity to build on diverse part-
nerships coming together to
learn how communities can
positively inuence child-
hood obesity in our region,"
said Manseld. "The nd-
ings validate the importance
and effectiveness of making
healthy choices more acces-
sible for children and their
families."
The focus of NEIFFI is
to address childhood obesity
through policy, system and
environmental changes that
increase the access to healthy,
local food and physical activ-
ity opportunities for children
and their families in Alla-
makee, Clayton, Chickasaw,
Fayette, Howard and Winne-
shiek counties.
Analysis of the data was
compiled over six years, in
10 elementary school districts
on more than 4,000 students.
The analysis led the team to
conclude that students who
experienced the NEIFFI for
several years showed slower
rates of growth in BMI across
the kindergarten through
fth-grade years. Because of
childhood obesity, for the rst
time in modern history, chil-
dren may live a shorter life
than their parents.

now-proven way to help re-
verse this trend. The data
shows that the four strategic
points of intervention that
NEIFFI employs are work-
ing by providing improved
access to healthier foods and
physical activities.
According to Toussaint,
the rst and foremost point
of intervention is the schools.
Through the following four
strategies, the initiative es-
tablishes school district pol-
icies and practices that sup-
port healthy living within the
community, focused on the
elementary school children
and their families:
Supporting school well-
ness activities, farm to school
programming and developing
opportunities for physical ac-
tivity throughout the school
day.
Ensuring that caregivers
and parents provide preschool
children with health-promot-
ing food and active play.
Developing networks to
make local, health-promoting
food available and affordable
in all communities.
Shaping a built environ-
ment that supports opportuni-
ties for physical activity and
play.
Building on these four
strategies, the research sur-
rounding NEIFFI suggests
that two to six years of ex-
posure to initiative work re-
sulted in a signicantly lower
BMI growth rate in elemen-
tary school children. The
collaboration produced the
paper "Slowing BMI Growth
Trajectories in Elementary
School-Aged Children: The
Northeast Iowa Food and
Fitness Initiative," which
was published in Family
and Community Health: The
Journal of Health Promotion
and Maintenance.
Toussaint said, "The col-
laboration is continuing to
work to assess BMI and un-
derstand contributors to child-
hood obesity. We are actively
collecting data, planning for
future programming, and us-
ing the results of analyses to
inform our next steps. We are
writing grants and seeking

Waukon football team clinches District 4 runner-up nish, Class 2A
State Play-Off berth with 56-21 home rout of North Fayette Valley
Indians will open season grand nale series this Friday at Clear Lake
For the second consecutive
season, the Waukon football
team was faced with a sce-
nario of win and youre in
the State Play-Offs against a
North Fayette Valley squad
with a strong football tradi-
tion over the years. Although
the situation wasnt quite the
same as last year, with last
seasons undefeated Tiger-
Hawks graduating the core of
their most recent success and
that graduation showing itself
in just a 2-6 North Fayette
Valley record this season, it
was still a case of taking care
of business for the Indians,
which they happened to do
quite well in posting a 56-21
victory to earn their fourth
State Play-Off berth in the
past six seasons.
North Fayette Valley
stresses you mentally with
all the formations they run,
Waukon football coach Chad
Beermann said of his teams
preparation for its final reg-
ular season game. If they
catch you out of position, a
play like their touchdown
pass can happen. We worked
on their formations four days
this past week.
That taking care of busi-
ness for the Indians saw them
jump out to a 22-0 headstart
behind a strong mix of de-
fense and offense on the way
to a 44-7 halftime lead. Fuel-
ing that scoreboard result was
just a 437-361 margin the In-
dians held in total yardage, an
edge that may not look as if
it should produce such a wide
scoreboard margin, until you
factor in that the Tribes first
two scoring drives of the ball-
game came from just 10 and
12 yards away after tone-set-
ting early plays by the Indian
defense.
North Fayette Valley had
moved the ball a bit on those
drives, and when you have
an opponent that knows they
are an underdog, but is look-
ing for a reason to believe,
those plays make it hard on
them, Coach Beermann said
of those big initial defensive
plays that set the Indians up
for their early scores.
Still, the Indian defense
had allowed just two oppos-
ing ballcarriers this season to
reach the 100-yard mark, and
in this game North Fayette
Valleys traditionally strong
rushing emphasis managed a
pair of runners reaching that
plateau as the TigerHawks
racked up 276 yards, al-
though many of those yards

was again held to a fourth-
and-goal situation. And, once
again, it was Snitker the Indi-
ans turned to, as he took the
fourth down call and plunged
in from one yard out, this
time the two-point conver-
sion missing its mark to leave
the Indians with a 14-0 ad-
vantage with just under three
minutes left to play in the
opening frame.
Indian defense played to
a less dramatic halt of North
Fayette Valleys efforts on
the TigerHawks next pos-
session, forcing another
punt. The Indian offense then
faced its first possession on
its own side of the field, but
proved that was not going to
be much of a problem, forg-
ing its way down the field to
cap off the drive with a sev-
en-yard touchdown toss from
Schwartz to fellow senior
Isaiah Welch, with Armstead
hauling in the two-point con-
version pass to push the In-
dians to a 22-0 lead less than
30 seconds into the second
quarter.

The final week of Halfback
Harry played out to a fairly
simple result, with just a minor
tie-breaker to determine the last
winner of this seasons contest.
This weeks contest featured
two entries that emerged to the
top of this final weeks field
with four missed games.
Phil Norton of Waukon and
Sam Hill were each locked in
that final battle, requiring the
winning points tie-breaker to
be implemented. This weeks
tie-breaker total ended up at 676
points, with Hills guess of 610
points just edging out Nortons
choice of 606 points for this
seasons final win.
Game of the Week was even
easier to figure, as not quite a

Loras tallied a 44-38 victory
over the Kohawks, with Jan
Pfiffner of Harpers Ferry hav-
ing the closest guess to that Du-
hawk total with her selection of
38 points.
Pfiffner became the eighth
and final entry - her second such
entry - into the final Game of
the Week grand prize drawing
at the end of the season for two
tickets to a UNI football game,
as no entry guessed Cascade to
defeat Waukon in Week 4 of this
season. Pfiffners two chanc-

series with a five-yard touch-
down run, Armstead convert-
ing the two-point conversion
once again to improve the
Tribe lead to 44-7 at the half-
time break.
The second half featured
a continuous clock, with the
Indians managing the only
tally of the third quarter. That
drive featured Snitker in the
Indians wildcat formation,
from where he carried the
team down the field to set up
a final one-yard plunge from
Armstead, with the two-point
the District 4 standings. With
the convincing Indian victory
over North Fayette Valley en-
suring a State Play-Off berth
for the Tribe, a perceived
upset of Cascade by Union
would suddenly catapult the
Indians to a reign as District
4 champions based on the
tie-breaking scenario that
would have played out in the
case of Waukon, Cascade and
Union all having one loss in
district play to one another in
a circle indicative of the com-
petition level once again this
season in Class 2A District 4.
With the Indians game
ending a bit earlier due to the
continuous clock mode in the
second half, the Union vs.
Cascade result was not yet
complete, and many of the
Indian coaching staff stood
near midfield listening to that

Coach Beermann. The Lions
had an undefeated district ti-
tle within their grasp, but a
14-7 loss to New Hampton
this past Friday allowed the
Chickasaws to steal the Dis-
trict 2 crown by virtue of a
head-to-head tiebreaker as
both teams now had one loss
on the season.
In addition to that one dis-
trict loss, Clear Lake holds a
7-2 overall record, with the
Lions other loss this sea-
son coming to Webster City
in non-district play. Much
like the Indians, the Lions
run a balanced attack which
is slightly more pass heavy
with more than 1,700 yards
through the air this season and
1,300 yards on the ground.
Clear Lake has tremen-
dous size, Coach Beermann
said. Their head coach is
Jared DeVries, former Iowa

ference squad Crestwood

New Hamptons only other
loss on the season came to the
Indians in the second week of
non-district play by a 28-20
final margin.

a 6-3 overall record on the
season and came away as

Kee volleyball team continues down postseason trail with wins over TV and N-K
The Kee volleyball season
rolls on but not without leav-
ing an Upper Iowa Conference
(UIC) colleague behind and
battling through a hard-fought
five-set marathon to make it
happen. The Lady Hawks first
took care of fellow UIC netters
Turkey Valley at home Tues-
day, October 17 for the fifth
time this season, this time in
three straight sets, 25-18, 25-
14 and 25-23, in the opening
round of Class 1A Region
5 tournament play, but then
were locked in a five-set war
in the Region 5 quarterfinals at
Riceville Monday, October 23,
battling Northwood-Kensett in
a match in which none of the
sets featured more than a final
five-point margin of victory
for either team, but three of
those sets going Kees way for
the match victory and further
postseason advancement by
scores of 21-25, 25-23, 20-25,
25-22 and 16-14.
Improving to a 20-14 match
record, including a 5-3 mark in
Upper Iowa Conference play,
the volleyball Hawks are next
scheduled to play this Thurs-
day, October 26 at and against
Dunkerton, beginning at 7
p.m. The Raiders come off a
three-set sweep of Mason City
Newman Monday by scores
of 25-12, 25-19 and 25-9. A
win Thursday will advance
the Lady Hawks to a Tuesday,
October 31 match at Waverly,
beginning at 7 p.m., to face
the winner of the other Region
5 semifinal match, Tripoli vs.
North Iowa, for the right to
compete in the Class 1A State
Tournament.
Regionals vs. Turkey Valley...
The volleyball Hawks got
their postseason journey off
to a quick and successful start
when they hosted fellow Up-
per Iowa Conference squad
Turkey Valley Tuesday, Oc-
tober 17 in the opening round
of the Class 1A Region 5 tour-
nament. Having played the
Trojans four times earlier this
season and won all but one of
10 sets in those four previous
matches, the Hawks made sure
they would not surrender an-
other one in sweeping Turkey
Valley by scores of 25-18, 25-
14 and 25-23.
Kee pounded out 31 kills
in the match while miscuing
on 17 attempts, but limited the
visiting Trojans to just 13 kills
while they committed 10 hit-
ting errors. Both teams missed
eight serves in the match, with
Kee firing away for 14 aces
while limiting to Turkey Val-
ley to six winners at the ser-
vice line.
The opening set started with
the Hawks giving up the first
point, but back-to-back multi-
point service runs by junior
McKenzie Hawes and senior
Kendra Cooper helped boost
the Hawks to a 7-3 lead. Af-
ter Turkey Valley surged back
to knot the score at 9-9, back-
to-back service runs by soph-
omore Elena Rolfs and junior
Macie Hill pushed the Hawks
back to a 15-10 advantage.
Limiting the visiting Trojans
to no more than two points in
any of their remaining service
possessions, the Hawks got an-
other three-point surge served
up by Cooper and their final
two points of the set with Hill
at the service line to finish off
the 25-18 first-set victory.

Kee battled back from early
Turkey Valley multi-set surges
behind a four-point surge with
Hill at the line followed by a
three-point eruption behind
the serve of senior Chloe Sev-
erson to make for a 7-4 Hawk
lead early. The two teams trad-
ed blows to just a 12-11 Kee
advantage until senior Ashley
Schwartzhoff took the serve
and helped the Hawks produce
a 6-0 run to an 18-11 Kee lead.
The Hawk defense settled in
to limit Turkey Valley to just
single-point possessions for
the sets remainder, while Hill,
Severson and Cooper each
served up multi-point runs to
help finish up the 25-14 Kee
victory.
A four-point surge served
up by Schwartzhoff early in
set three helped Kee to a 6-1
advantage, but Turkey Valley
managed a 0-7 blast followed
by another 0-5 surge on the way
to snatching that lead away at a
14-16 Kee deficit. A trading of
blows ensued until Schwartz-
hoff took the serve a second
time in the match to help or-
chestrate a 5-0 Kee eruption
that pushed the Hawks back in
front, 21-20, late in the set. An-
other couple points served up
by Severson took the Hawks to
the brink of victory at 24-21,
but Turkey Valley managed a
small rally to 24-23 before Kee
managed to win the final side-
out to seal the 25-23 win in set
three and the match victory in
sweeping fashion.
Severson blasted away at
the net for a team-high 14 kills,
with Cooper also swinging
for double digits with 11 net
winners and freshman Macy
Manning adding four more
kills. Hill racked up 18 assists,
with junior Meredith Gruber
adding four more helps. Coo-
per assisted on a team-high
three blocks, with sophomore
Matteson Weymiller help-
ing out on two more denials.
Schwartzhoff dug up a team-
high 12 saves, with Cooper
and Gruber each adding eight
digs and Severson chipping in
six more. Cooper and Hawes
each served up a team-high
three aces, Cooper converting
all 12 of her serve attempts,
with Schwartzhoff, Severson
and Hill each adding a pair of
service winners, and Gruber
and junior Neve Goetzinger
each chipping in one as well.
Regionals vs. Northwood-Kensett...
The Kee netters ended up
locked in what most would
deem a surprisingly close bat-
tle between a team with just
seven match wins on the sea-
son in Northwood-Kensett and
the Hawks with nearly three
times that many victories to
their credit. Nonetheless, the
two teams traded kills, aces,
errors, hustle plays and set vic-
tories through an entertaining
five-set marathon that lasted
nearly two hours and saw nei-
ther team win by more than a
five-point margin, and neither
team muster much more than
that much of an edge in any
of the matchs five sets, the
Hawks finally coming out on
top by scores of 21-25, 25-23,
20-25, 25-22 an 16-14.

The Hawks found them-
selves in an early hole to start
set one, but consecutive kills
by senior Kendra Cooper,
freshman Jada Mitchell and
senior Chloe Severson pushed
Kee back in front at 5-4. Sev-
erson then took the serve and
rattled off a trio of unreturn-
ables to a 10-6 Kee advantage.
That trend of surges between
the two squads continued, with
kills by Mitchell, senior Ashley
Schwartzhoff and Cooper and
a denial at the net by Mitchell
moving the Hawks to a 19-16
lead. Northwood-Kensett had
one finally rally in its arsenal,
getting some help from Kee
miscues in rattling off a 0-7
surge to overtake the Hawks
at 19-23. Mitchell tallied one
final blast at the net before the
Vikings managed the final two
points to snatch away set one
by a 21-25 final result.
Set two was much of the
same, each team piecing to-
gether small surges to stay
well within striking distance of
one another. A Cooper kill and
ace serve by junior Macie Hill
helped the Hawks to a 3-1 ear-
ly lead before Northwood-Ken-
sett countered to rip the lead
away at 5-6. A pair of net win-
ners by Severson helped the
Hawks to a 4-0 surge of their
own before the teams then fell

Waukon volleyball team has season brought to an end in first-round loss at New Hampton
The 2017 Waukon volley-
ball season was brought to a
close in the Indians first op-
portunity to try and extend
it, as the Tribe netters fell
in three straight sets at New
Hampton in Class 3A Region
5 tournament play Wednes-
day, October 18. Having not
been able to win a set against
the Chickasaws in three pre-
vious matches this season,
the Indians looked to be on
the verge of doing that right
away in this tournament
match, building a 20-9 lead
in set one, but had the host
Chickasaws claw their way
back to not only steal away
that first set, 24-26, but also
go on to sweep the next two
sets as well, 15-25 and 12-25,
to bring the Indians season to
a close.
New Hampton hammered
out 41 kills in the match
while giving away 15 points
on hitting errors, with the In-
dians managing just 11 kills
but canceling out that produc-
tion with 11 hitting errors as
well. The Chickasaws were
even less efficient at the ser-
vice line, firing away for sev-
en aces while giving away
eight points on missed serves.
The Indians actually gained a
point at the service line, also
firing away for seven winners
there while missing just six
serves.
The first-set lead the Indi-
ans gained on New Hampton
didnt start out that way, as
the host Chickasaws bolted to
a 0-3 headstart before giving
away three straight points to
knot the score. With senior
Audry Fahey at the service
line, the Indians added to
that New Hampton generos-
ity with a combined block
from the junior twin tower
tandem of Brigid Berns and
SPORTS
to cap off a 7-0 Indian surge
to a 7-3 advantage before
New Hampton could stop the
bleeding.
An exchange of blows kept
the Indians at a 12-7 margin
before kills from Berns and
senior Caryssa Hermanson,
and a combined denial at the
net by Hermanson and fellow
senior Angela Villarreal fu-
eled another 5-0 Indian streak
to a 17-7 Tribe lead. That
margin grew to 20-9 before
the host Chickasaws began
to mount their comeback ef-
fort, trading a pair of one-for-
five series with the Indians to
chew the Tribe margin to just
22-18. New Hampton errors
that had helped fuel the Indi-
ans earlier lead became few-
er and fewer but did help the
Indians to the brink of the set
victory at 24-21. However, it
was a pair of Indian miscues
coupled with a final Chick-
asaw ace and kill off an at-
tempted block that aided the
host squad in snatching away
the first set victory with a 24-
26 Indian defeat.
New Hampton jumped out
to another early lead in set
two, 0-5, but a solo block by
Berns and an ace served up
by Villarreal helped take ad-
vantage of more Chickasaw
generosity for a 6-0 Indian
surge to push the Indians in
front. That trend of traded
bursts continued to play out,

Kee football team wraps up 2017 with biggest win

of the season, 59-7 at West Central in District 3 play
The Kee football team
brought its 2017 season to an
end in a final blaze of glory,

highest point total of the sea-

forced West Central to turn
the ball over on downs before
the Kee offense went back to
work to cap off its next drive
with a five-yard touchdown
run by senior Tristan Rolfs,
with the Colsch-to-Walleser
connection working again
through the air for the two-
point conversion and a 16-0
Hawk lead that would stand
at the end of the first quarter
following a missed field goal
attempt by West Central on
its final possession of that
first frame.
The second quarter proved
to be most productive for the
Hawks, as they found the end
zone four more times to rattle
off a 28-0 scoreboard addition
with some continued defen-
sive domination aiding that
Kee onslaught. The Hawks
opened that second frame by
finishing off their third con-
secutive scoring series with

next possession as well, with
a two-point conversion run
failing and leaving the Hawk
lead at 30-0. Walleser then
displayed his hot hands on
defense, as he ended the next
West Central drive with an in-
terception, returning the pick
to the two-yard line, from
where senior Eric Rud would
bull his way into the end zone
a short time later. Colsch and
Walleser connected yet again
for the two-point conversion
pass to improve Kees lead to
38-0.
Following yet another de-
fensive denial by the Hawks,
they marched down the field
once again on offense to add
one final tally to their side of
the scoreboard before half-
time. This time, the Colsch-
to-Walleser air combination
connected for the touchdown,
a 20-yard strike, with the
two-point conversion run be-
ing denied by the host Blue
Devils to leave Kees lead at
44-0 at the halftime break.
With the game clock in
continuous mode for the en-
tire second half based on
Kees scoring margin of at
least 35 points, the Hawks
managed just two third-quar-
ter possessions while limit-
ing West Central to just one
more unproductive series.
Kee made the most of its first
drive, with Rud busting loose
for a 29-yard scoring jaunt
that was followed by a rare
extra point kick that Flack
booted through the uprights
to make for a 51-0 Kee ad-
vantage. Kees only other
possession of the frame end-
ed in the Hawks lone punt of
the night.
West Central finally found
the scoreboard as the fourth
quarter got underway, scoring
on an 11-yard touchdown run
to knick into the Kee lead a bit
at 51-7. The two teams then
traded turnovers to end each
others next drives, sopho-
more Cade Rasque picking
off a Blue Devil pass to set up
one final Kee scoring drive.
Senior Jack Mooney capped
off that final Hawk series
with a six-yard touchdown
run, with fellow senior Deon
Davis also breaking into the
scoring column for the first
time this season by adding
the two-point conversion run
to finalize the games scoring
at the 59-7 Kee victory.
Colsch completed four
of just five pass attempts in
the victory for 44 yards and
the lone touchdown strike to
Walleser for his lone catch
of 20 yards, with Rud also
catching one pass for 23
yards. Colsch also led Kees
ground attack with 84 yards
and two touchdowns on nine
carries, with Rud adding 79
yards and two touchdowns of
his own on eight carries. The
senior trio of Mooney, Flack
and Rolfs each also added a
rushing touchdown, Mooney
running for 48 yards on nine
rushes, Flack adding 28 more
on two carries and Rolfs run-
ning for 23 yards on eight
rushes.
Colsch paced Kees de-
fense with six solo tackles,
with sophomore Brayden
Gavin adding five solo stops
and junior Shawn Wild wrap-
ping up three individual halts.
Sophomore Ethan Hawes
posted the Hawks lone quar-
terback sack, with Rolfs and
junior Aidan Winters each
also wrapping up a solo tack-
le for a loss of yards. Walleser
and Rasque each picked off a
pass to further Kees defen-
sive effort.
The Hawks wrapped up
their 2017 campaign with a
3-6 overall record, including
a 3-3 mark in Eight-Player
District 3 play. That District 3
mark left Kee in fourth place
in the final district standings,
behind State Play-Off qualifi-

well as Dunkerton.

ON TO STATE! Waukon girls cross country team ends a decade

of drought with rst State Meet team qualication since 2006
Waukon girls scheduled to compete at 2 p.m. this Saturday among Class 2A elite
The Waukon girls cross
country team was able to end
a streak of 10 consecutive
seasons without qualifying
as a team for the State Cross
Country Meet when the Lady
Indians ran to a third-place
team finish to earn the final
qualifying spot at their Class
2A State Qualifying Meet
hosted by Dike-New Hart-
ford Thursday, October 19.
Behind the strength of hav-
ing all five of their scored
runners place within the top
30 team-scored individuals,
the Lady Indians claimed
that third-place team finish
with 96 team points behind
third-rated Crestwood and
sixth-rated Cascade.
We knew two of the
teams, Crestwood and Cas-
cade, were going to be strong
as we have faced them in pre-
vious meets, Waukon girls
cross country coach Brett
Egan said. We needed to get
as many girls in the top 20
to put us in the best position
possible. If the girls compet-
ed like they had in the past
two meets, we knew a top-
three team finish was a pos-
sibility. With a very young
group, five underclassmen, I
was unsure of how the girls
would respond with a trip to
State on the line and trying
to meet the expectations they
set for themselves and their
teammates. The girls were
very composed and put to-
gether a great team effort.

sponsibility to the library nances

land for citizens to garden fruits/
vegetables. Mr. Mitchell request-
ed the City to purchase a parcel

VIEWPOINTS
The views expressed on this page are not necessarily views shared by this newspaper or its staff members
And then I wrote ...
... that the handwriting
seems to be on the wall in re-
gard to the future of the Wa-
terville attendance center of
the Allamakee Community
School District.
Not on the walls of that
almost 100 year old building,
but in the information publi-
cation put out by the districts
board for consideration prior
to the board meeting in No-
vember and the December
meeting to announce a deci-
sion.
It isnt anyones fault
if the decision is to close
the school. It is a victim of
changing population densi-
ties. The information shows
an average of about 20 stu-
dents per grade just 20 years
ago to about ten projected for
next year. Rural populations
have declined everywhere as
farmers have faced the same
problem as many mom and
pop businesses, either get big
or get out.
I have no heavily invest-
ed personal interest in the
Waterville school, but I have
memories, some fond, some
not so much. As a high school
student at St. Patrick School,
we played basketball in that
cracker-jack Waterville gym,
where the walls were out of
bounds and the ceiling too
low to allow a lofted shot. We
lost, but Waterville had better
players as well as home court
advantage.
Many years later, I cov-
ered basketball games played
in the new gym added to the
school.
For many years, I cov-
ered the annual school board
meeting held in Waterville
after school elections. The
school looked like a school.
Steps of many students over
many years were evident in
the wear on stairways. Pride
showed in the care of the
building.
I was active at the news-
paper when the decision was
made to close the Dorchester
school. There was a great
deal of angry opposition at
that time, and I am hoping
that can be avoided in the
case of the Waterville school.
But it is true that when a
community loses its school,
it loses more than the use of
that building.
Again, it is nobodys fault.
The district has tried by
changing attendance bound-
aries, but that proved tempo-
rary.
I laughed to myself Sun-
day morning when I read
all ayes. Absent and not voting:

Mrs. Kathleen Block has been settling in to her position at Kee High.
NewTeacherat KHS
by Jaelyn Strong
Mrs. Kathleen Block is
a new math teacher at Kee
High School. Mrs. Block, her
husband, and five children
live in Waukon, IA. She has
taught at three other schools
before she came here. Her
first teaching job was in El
Paso, TX, teaching there for
two years. Next, she worked
in Oelwein, IA, teaching for
two years, and then taught at
West Central in Maynard, IA,
for ten years.
Mrs. Block said she is re-
ally enjoying her first year at
Kee High although there are
a few challenges she is work-
ing on overcoming.
She taught at a school for
ten years and made many
connections. Not only did she
know everyones names, but
she knew students parents,
siblings, and extended family
members.
She said she is starting
to be more successful with
names and is slowly getting
Technology in the Classroom
Students use technology in a variety of ways in the Eastern Allamakee
Community School district.
by Ian Sickles
Technology in schools
is advancing faster than it
ever has before. Almost ev-

Some classes integrate the
use of the personal school

Some classes require
sparse use of laptops while
others rely on them heavily.
Some classes are even taught
Students Practice Standardized Tests
by Macie Hill
Twelve eleventh grade stu-
dents gathered to take PSAT
or Preliminary Scholastic Ap-
titude Test last week.
There were four different
sections on the test, includ-
ing: reading, writing and lan-
guage, math without using
a calculator, and math using
a calculator. The whole test
took about three and a half
hours to complete.
The supervisor for the test,
Mrs. Jeannine Hisel, said that
the PSAT is a good practice
for taking standardized tests
to know more about students
families.
There are a lot of simi-
larities between West Central
and Kee High, stated Mrs.
Block.
She pointed out that both
schools are small and have
staff and students who are
proud of their schools.
Mrs. Block said West Cen-
tral and Kee High have very
supportive communities who
take pride in the history of
the school. I really enjoyed
homecoming week at Kee be-
cause I could sense the pride
that the staff and students
have about their school, stat-
ed Mrs. Block.
One big difference Mrs.
Block noticed is that the
teachers here set their own
cell phone policy. West Cen-
tral students were not allowed
to have phones out in class.
She said its different to even

phone policy.
completely using an online
program or website.
Students and teachers
canfind these methods of
learning and teaching effec-
tive and efficient because
the information the soft-
ware necessary to under-
stand and create learning is
literally at ones fingertips.
For example, a teacher may
such as the ACT, even though
most students at Kee High do
not take the SAT.
After students completed
the test, their names were sent
to the advisors for the Nation-
al Merit Scholarship Qualify-
ing Test or NMSQT. This is
done to get students names
out to different colleges. De-
pending on the students
scores, they may also qualify
for a Merit Scholarship.

PSAT gave me a good idea of
Career Learning Link Updates
by Hallie Vinson
Kee High School teamed
up with NICC, Upper Explor-
erland and the East Central
Intergovernmental Associa-
tion (ECIA) to give students
the opportunity to join the
Career Learning Link pro-
gram (CLL).
Kee High has been in-
volved in the program for
many years. Almost all
schools in the NICC district
participate. NICC, Upper
Explorerland, and ECIA all
work together to make sure
that the Career Learning Link
program runs smoothly.
Career Learning Link is
a program that allows stu-
dents have a taste of what it
is like to be in the work force
world.
The program also gives
students an idea of possible
career pathways in the fu-
ture and what education field
would be best for them.
Being able to figure out a
post-graduation plan can save
a great amount of money, an-

use an online resource which
allows students to performing
labs or conduct web quests.
Despite the advancements
in technology and the heavy
integration into schools,
some students are unhappy
with the method of teaching.
Some students prefer the use
of paper and pencil as they
find it to be more natural or
reliable.
The use of paper and pen-
cil for some students may
deem more appealing because
they prefer being hands-on
with projects and away from
computer screens.
In addition, students strug-
gle with computer issues at
times. The battery life of the
laptops requires students be
by an outlet, especially for
those who are enrolled in
classes which rely heavily on
computer use.
Another issue revolves
around the Internet which can
be spotty or unreliable. The
district upgraded the wireless
configuration both in New
Albin and in Lansing to ad-

for other standardized tests.
Last year, the same stu-
dents had the opportunity to
take the Pre-ACT which is
another test to take to prac-
tice for other standardized
tests.

other benefit of this program.
There are only a few re-
quirements to be able to join:
students must be enrolled by
fall semester of their junior
year; they must commit to
two years of participation;
they must complete at least
one college credit both junior
and senior years; they must
participate in a job shadow,
complete the college credit
Pre-employment Strategies
course; and they must be able
to meet with a Career Coach
at least twice during each
school year.
Career coaches visit the
school so students dont have
to go to NICC directly.
Applications can be
picked up from Mrs. Hisel or
Mrs. Steiber or found online
at the NICC CLL website.

dress this issue while students
are working in the buildings.
There still exists an issue for
some students outside of the
schools, however. Some stu-
dents in the district simply do
not have access to the Internet
at home.
For some it is a family
choice not to subscribe to a
service; for others it is simply
a matter of too much interfer-
ence from hills and bluffs to
have a reliable connection.
When homework is as-
signed to a student who does
not have Internet access at
home, students must come
up with alternative solutions
such as the public library.
Even that solution has its
drawbacks as students who
are involved in extra-curricu-
lar activities may not be able
to visit the library during its
hours of operation.
While the integration of
technology in our schools
helps to prepare students for
the world beyond, it can also
be overwhelming and intimi-
dating to many.
Students Attend Vocal Fest
by Ian Sickles
The Upper Iowa Confer-
ence (UIC) Vocal Festival
took place on October 9,
2017, at MFL/MarMac. The
festival was the gathering
of a total of five schools to
perform together as a choir.
In addition, each school per-
formed a song of their own.
The students were expect-
ed to wear nice clothing for
the concert rather than choir
robes.
The conference consisted
of the following schools:
Starmont, Central Elkader,
Clayton Ridge, MFL/Mar-
Mac, and Kee High.
The songs that were per-
formed by all groups were:
The Ballad of Sweeney
Todd by Andy Beck; Be-
yond the Rain and Rivers by
Douglas E. Wagner; Requi-
em by Eliza Gilkyson; Dry
Bones by Mark Hayes; and
Music, Lead the Way by
Laura Farnell.

William Mitchell stated
that he went on the trip to

2018 Senior Trip Fruit Sales
by Hallie Vinson
Kee High seniors have
been selling fruit to earn
money toward their trip to
Washington, D.C.
There is a variety of dif-
ferent packages one can
choose from when purchas-
ing fruit.
A few examples include:
mixed fruit boxes, citrus
fruits, cheese, sausage, and
nut packages. Each box can
be chosen in different propor-
tions.
The school gets the
fruit through the company
MinnTex, a Midwest fruit,
cheese and sausage fund-rais-
ing program.
Throughout the selling
process, approximately $6-7
goes toward the students per
box of fruit sold.
The meat and cheese pack-
ages help the students earn a
profit between $4-5 per box.
Sales started on Wednes-
together because both of the
school coincidently chose the
same song. The song that was
sung was River in Judea by
John Leavitt.
All the schools began prac-
tice together at MFL/MarMac
at 2:00 p.m. Then sectionals
were held, first for the women
while the men were on break
at 3:30, followed by the men
with the women on break at
4:00.
The final rehearsal with all
the schools was held at 4:30.

Additional benefits to this
program include: job shad-
owing experience, a clearly
defined future career or edu-
cation path, development of
career goals, enhancement
of career-based skills, assis-
tance with the college appli-
cation process, the option to
participate in an internship or

day, October 10, and will con-
clude on October 25.
Anyone who is interested
in buying fruit but has not
been approached by a stu-
dent should call the school at
(563)-538-4201.
Senior Sponsor Jennifer
Servais stated, Kids can
easily raise enough money
for the whole trip by selling
fruit.
The senior class trip will
take place at the end of the
school year, April 27 through
May 3, and all members of
the class are eligible but must
either pay or raise the funds to
cover the cost of the trip.
The trip will cost between
$600-650 per student this
year, depending on some of
the optional sites the class
will be visiting.
All fruit will be delivered
during the week of November
29.
Students were given a break
for dinner and individual
practices before the evening
performance commenced.
The performance started
with each school perform-
ing their individual songs.
Kee High and Starmont were
the first ones to sing. After
the individual songs were
performed, the large group
performance of all schools
combined was presented. The
public was invited to attend
the concert.

The Kee High Advanced

class spent a day going to area
businesses to participate in
the Banner Ad Program for
the Kee High Yearbook.
Earlier, a letter was sent to
each business and students
called as well, describing and
asking owners if they would
like to participate in the ad-
vertising program.
There are four different
packages the businesses could
choose from if they par-
ticipated, which include the
White package, Grey pack-
age, Purple package, and the
Premium package.
The White package in-
cludes the businesss name
listed in the 2018 Kee Year-
book as a supporter and a
sign designating support for
the Kee Yearbook in the busi-
nesss window.
The Grey package includes
the logo of the business dis-
played on the dedication page
of the 2018 Yearbook. It also
includes the window sign.
The Purple package in-
cludes the details of the Grey
package but adds the busi-

After conducting a sur-
vey last fall, Dr. Patchin
found that about 10% of stu-
dents cyber bully others. Dr.
Patchin went on to say that
people think more than 10%
are involved because they see
it all the time, especially with
adults making rules associ-
ated with cyber bullying.
Dr. Patchin has found that
youths cyber bully for two
reasons: they want to get re-

ny.
If we have to tear some-
one else apart to make us feel
good, that isnt cool, stated
Dr. Patchin.
Dr. Patchin also spoke on
the necessity of being smart

talked about social media

even if users delete a post, it
will always still exist.
I believe anything you

Dr. Patchin.

that people they do not know

Working in the School Year
by Macy Vinson
Working during the school
year can be good and bad.
Lots of teens these days have
jobs, and it can seem stress-
ful at times, but it can also be
beneficial.
One advantage of working
is that students can learn re-
sponsibility and manage their
time wisely. When students
dont have a job, sometimes
they have a hard time learn-
ing how to be responsible. A
job is a good way to commu-
nicate with people, and its a
really good experience to get
to do that at such a young age.
Another advantage is that
students can make money and
learn to use it wisely. Hav-
ing a job teaches students to
use their money responsibly.
They can choose to put it in
the bank and save it up, and
it helps them learn a little bit
more about the responsibility
of that.
Jobs can help you get
along with others and be re-
sponsible employees. Work-
ing with others could be ben-
eficial, especially if students
meet new people and create
new friendships. It also helps
them get the tasks done that
they have to do, because they
are used to doing just that at
and not getting enough sleep.
Sleep is very important,
especially during the school
year. It gives students the
energy to get through the
day and focus on school and
work. If students dont get
enough sleep, it can really af-
fect the way they think and
learn.
A solution for that is that
students could ask their boss-
es for fewer late hours on
school nights and that would
help with getting the sleep
that teens need.
Another disadvantage is
working so much that stu-
dents slack on their home-
work, and lack the energy
to do anything. Working too
much is very hard on stu-
dents, especially when they
have homework later that
night that they have to get
finished. It can just drain their
energy and students may get
too tired to spend adequate
time on their homework.
A solution again is to con-
trol the number of hours spent
working so students have the
energy to finish their home-
work, and are still able to get
to bed at a reasonable time to
be alert the next day at school.
There are many good ben-

FFA Students to World Dairy Expo

by Caleb Conway
Each year the Kee High
Schools FFA Club spends a
day at the World Dairy Expo,
and years theme for the Expo
was Explore New Dairy
Worlds.
While at the Expo, stu-
dents had the opportunity to
walk amoung the huge vari-
ety of exhibits from around
the world. Exhibits ranged
from calf care products to
machinery.
We talked to a guy from
Australia that was bringing
a new product to the United
States for heat detection,
Ray Rankin at a FFA meeting discussing future trips.
said the Kee High Ag Instruc-
tor Ray Rankin.
Students even practiced
bartering at some of the
booths and got some free
merchandise. In one instance,
Dylan Peterson recieved a
calf tube feeder by talking
to a salesperson. According
to animart.com, a calf tube
feeder sells for about $60.
We sat and watched some
of the dairy shows and they
would say the winner is from
California, or the winner
is from Ohio, so just crazy

Myhre family farm recognized as a Century Farm
The 200-acre Myhre farm
on Bear Creek Drive in Wa-
terloo Township, Allama-
kee County, Iowa (formerly
owned by Owen and Mildred
Myhre and now owned by
their daughters Bonnie and
Laurie) reached a landmark
this year: Having continu-
ously been in the same fami-
ly for 100 years, it earned the
distinction of being named a
century farm. Mildred Myhre
of Spring Grove, MN, Bon-
nie (Myhre) and Bruce Wil-
liams of Cedar Rapids, IA,
and Laurie (Myhre) Knoke
of DeKalb, IL, attended a
ceremony at the Iowa State
Fair August 17, 2017 where
they received a Century
Farm marker from the Farm
Bureau and a certificate from
the Iowa Department of Ag-
riculture and Land Steward-
ship designating the property
as a 2017 Century Farm.
According to the book,
History of Allamakee Coun-
ty, Iowa, 1989, the farm was
homesteaded by John Fitz-
gerald in 1854. The farm
was sold to Beret and Peder
Auna in 1917 and they sold

it to their daughter and son-
in-law, Petra and Rudolph
Myhre in 1929 for the sum
of $6,000. The Great De-
pression years that followed
made it difficult for farmers
to make their loan payments
so in 1933 when the Emer-
gency Farm Mortgage Act
was implemented and the
Farm Credit Administration
came into existence, Petra
and Rudolph were able to
borrow enough money to
make their farm payments.
Although they were allowed

Owen was a forward-thinker
and designed his own blue-
prints for several of these im-
provements. And, like many
farmers, he could do pretty
much anything that needed to
be done - carpentry, welding,
cement work, electrical and
plumbing work, equipment
repair, animal care, crop care,
etc. Mildred, as the right-
hand man, helped with field
work, milking, fencing, tak-
ing care of the chickens, and
a host of other outdoor tasks
in addition to caring for the
house and the kids.
Farm ownership was trans-
ferred to Owen and Mildreds
daughters, Bonnie (Myhre)
Williams and Laurie (Myhre)
Knoke, in 2007 - with the
exception of the house, out-
buildings, and a few acres
of land that were sold to a
private party in 2005. Al-
though the last 100 years
have brought many changes
in farming techniques and
technologies, the roots of
the land itself and the Myhre
family who owns it run deep
into the past.
